JEC Group have brought toge­ther the international community of composites leaders and executives in our Composites Circle as an unique networking opportunity to meet with both peers and future partners.

Take part in JEC World, the leading international show for composites and advanced materials.

More than just an exhibition, JEC World provides a world-class opportunity to meet the right people through our planned events and additional programs, including : B2B meetings, Conferences & Presentations, Innovation planets, Startup Booster, Innovation Awards, Leadership Circle.

Dive into JEC World 2018 universe for a 360° view of the global composites industry!

The world of composites is young, dynamic and quickly growing into a vast range of segments, markets, applications and technologies.

To learn more about it, JEC Group proposes a wide range of publications that will allow you to learn all about the trends and forecasts of the composites industry, and about the key players from the sector.

JEC Group has published a new book « Overview of the global composites market - at the crossroads ». An in-depth analysis of the composites market and the materials’ potential, the book also highlights the challenges that lie ahead in the sector.

The industry sectors, users of non-renewable fibers, are now engaged in an eco-design approach. Structured to meet the demand of the Industry, JEC Group, the CELC’s European Scientific Committee and its industry’s R&D teams coordinated the first scientific book about the composite solutions natural fibers. « Flax and Hemp, a natural solution for the composite industry ».

The Energy Department announced $7 million for six projects to develop lightweight, compact, and inexpensive advanced hydrogen storage systems that will enable longer driving ranges and help make fuel cell systems competitive for different platforms and sizes of vehicles.

These advances in hydrogen storage will be critical to the widespread commercialization of hydrogen and fuel cell technologies.

Materia of Pasadena, California will receive $2 million to reduce the cost of compressed hydrogen storage systems. The project will demonstrate a novel resin system that reduces the use of expensive carbon fiber composites for high pressure storage tanks.

PPG Industries of Greensboro, North Carolina will receive $1.2 million to demonstrate a novel high strength glass fiber that is stronger than the carbon fibers used today at half of the cost.

Sandia National Laboratories of Livermore, California will receive $1.2 million to systematically screen low cost alternative materials for use in hydrogen storage systems.

Lawrence Livermore National Laboratory of Livermore, California, will receive $1.2 million to develop a reversible, high-capacity storage material that can bond to and release hydrogen in a vehicle, reducing the amount of hydrogen that needs to be pumped in the tank.

Ardica of San Francisco, California will receive $1.2 million to transition and scale-up a low-cost production process for the production of aluminum hydride, a potential high-capacity hydrogen storage material.

HRL Laboratories of Malibu, California will receive $1 million to develop high capacity reversible hydrogen storage materials that have properties needed for practical hydrogen storage applications.
